  • Summary

  • How can gardens become spaces for healing and community? Can plantations become sites for challenging exploitation and the vestiges of colonialism? 

    To find out, listen to Annalee Davis in conversation with SB15 curator Hoor Al Qasimi.
     
    At Sharjah, Davis grew a medicinal garden made using plants, herbal knowledge and gardening practices from around the world. The work, called Pray to Flowers — A Plot of Disalienation (2023) and made in collaboration with artist and gardener Yoeri Guépin, critiques colonial cultivation as well as the misuse of land due to globalisation.

    Davis’ work is on view at Bait Al Hurma courtyard in Al Mureijah Square till 11 June 2023.
